The “Light fifty” M82 Barrett

20170525_065820.jpgI currently own an M82 Barrett which currently is a wreck. I bought it very cheap from a shop for £80 however is doesn’t fire accurately and only has 330 fps (for a 50 cal, it should be 500!!) Lancer Tactical brings the iconic M82 Barrett 50-caliber to the airsoft market. While the gas versions of this airsoft rifle sell well over £1,500, Lancer has the spring-powered variant for a fraction of that. Constructed from a polymer frame/stock and full metal outer barrel assembly, this sniper should fire out of the box from 425-435 FPS with 0.20g BBs allowing it to reach distances of 200+ feet to take out the enemy team’s players where they think they’re safe.

Measuring in at a colossal 1.36m when assembled, this 50cal style rifle is guaranteed to turn heads at the field (but for me, it never performed). It’s mix of polymer body and full metal barrel assembly allows this massive rifle to remain a decent weight of 1600g. The drop-free mid-cap magazine holds 25 6mm BBs and is quickly and easily reloadable with the provided pistol magazine shaped speed loader. The upper receiver has a continuous picatinny/weaver RIS for attaching nearly any RIS compatible scope. 3 seperate sling mounting rings can be utilized with many clip-on style slings for transporting this rifle around the field. The pistol style grip makes for comfortable shooting from nearly any shooting position.
